In short: Poor organisation, cheaply done.In full: Started early, catching quite a lot of people out. The entire field were cutting corners at some points of the course because it was badly marked out. An expensive half marathon and you had to pay for a race t-shirt on top.Date of review: September 30, 2012

In short: well organised and interesting runIn full: Really enjoyed this race.Seemed to be organised like clockwork.Good atmosphere and good event village.And a P.B. as well!Date of review: September 30, 2012

In short: Fantastic Race!!In full: Just back from the Robin Hood half marathon this morning. Fantastic race, great organisation and brill atmosphere. If this is your first half, you will not be disappointed!Date of review: September 30, 2012

In short: what a lovely raceIn full: My first ever half marathon, and although injured and having to walk about 4 miles i absolutely loved it. The route through university campus and woolaton park in the middle of the race as well as the castle view early on and the start and finish at the embankment were very scenic. Lots of support from the locals especially in woolaton. Excellent race, excellent support and has played a part in converting several non-runners running with me!Date of review: September 25, 2011

In short: definitely be back next yearIn full: Whoever mapped out the half mara course went out their way to get as many hills in there as possible, but really enjoyable race even with the strong winds. Goody bag at the end could have been better, though - other than the mars bar nothing very helpful in there.Date of review: September 15, 2011

In short: Great run - pity about the windIn full: The bit around 18 miles just felt like the organisers were trying to fit in a bit of road space much like the Edinburgh marathon. A little bit less of the down the road for a bit and then back again would be nicer (even if that means more time around the rowing lake). Just a pity the organisers can't arrange the weather - the wind was something else and especially tough after 20 or so miles in the legsDate of review: September 15, 2011

In short: A windy day and in the wrong directionIn full: As ever well organised, must have been a million portaloos at the start. Not sure about the strange journey down the lane at 18 miles, presume it was to lessen the time spent going round the lake.Date of review: September 15, 2011

In short: Great RunIn full: My first run at this event. Very well organised run. Thought it would be claustrophobic due to the high number of entrants (approx 12000) but this was not the case as all roads were closed off which made the run A nice run with a couple of hills. With the run going past the castle and through the University grounds and Wollaton Deer Park. Great support from locals on the way round with water pistols at the ready. Also a couple of bands en route which put a smile to my face. Will be back next year for this one. Date of review: September 14, 2011
